Nas can touch a wack beat and make the whole song sound good. Take Ether as an example. It’s like deception. When Ninth Wonder put his beat over the Ether acapella then it was for sure a masterpiece but Nas made the original beat sound like it wasn’t so trash. So I guess that’s what he continued to do on Nigger.

@T9FTW NIGGER (The Slave And The Master) is the best track on the album in my opinion. Also, the production is purposefully minimalistic, probably so that you focus more on the lyrics and what Nas is trying to say. My third favourite Nas album, after Illmatic and It Was Written.

@T9FTW @DJSwaggyP my favorite song personally. Anytime I hear the hook, Shit just makes me proud to be black.
My ranking of Nas albums( That I’ve heard) is:
Illmatic
God’s Son
It was written
Nigger
Life Is Good
Lost Tapes
Stillmatic
Distant Relatives
